Delaware State University (DSU) holds its annual undergraduate commencement in Alumni Stadium (typically early May), while the graduate commencement takes place later the same day in the DeLauder Theatre. According to DSU’s Commencement FAQs, regalia packages include a basic cap, gown, hood, and tassel, and students must purchase these through the bookstore or an approved vendor. The tassels provided by DSU bear the DSU insignia and notably do not feature a year charm.
Stoles are not part of the standard regalia package; instead, students may choose to purchase them separately through DSU’s Bookstore after a specified date each year. This optional stole package allows graduates to add a personalized or honor‑related stole to their academic dress.
DSU also recognizes special distinctions in its regalia system. For example, during its Pass & Review Ceremony, military‑affiliated graduates receive a military graduation cord that marks their service and academic achievement. In addition, DSU awards an Excellence in Leadership Award during commencement, but publicly available sources do not indicate a specific stole or cord color tied to this honor.
Regarding faculty regalia, the publicly accessible DSU graduate catalog and commencement FAQs do not clearly define a color scheme for hoods, velvet trim, or discipline‑specific academic decoration. Given the lack of publicly listed hood‑color or stole‑color charts by academic discipline, vendors and graduates ordering regalia should rely on traditional academic regalia conventions — black gowns, matching tassels with insignia, and optional stoles or cords that reflect their personal honors or affiliations.
